MOD Validated/Released

Someone has sent me an PM about where to add the image
Maybe it's not apparent to WHERE it should be (although I though it shouldn't be difficult)

Anyway, after installing this mod, you can go to your ACP -> Forum Management
You can add an image to a forum by go into Adding Forums (for new forum) or Editing Forums (for existing forum)
There will now be an additional field for forum image path input.
Have that set up then the image are ready to show

Good Luck to all.

A good addition to this MOD should be to have a list box with all the icon possible for a forum, instead of entering the path of the file

[ycl6]

yes morpheus2matrix, this has been suggested before. I'm still working on this MOD. The next version should be the final release of this MOD

[morpheus2matrix]

That's a good news

Good luck

I presume it's because you have to enter the adresse withouth the http://www.etc. first, like I did on my firsts try. ^^

Nice mod by the way!

Silly ?

I was wondering before I do this if I am correct or not in my asumption
The instructions say this

# Remember to change the table prefix used on your database
ALTER TABLE `phpbb2_forums` ADD `forum_icon` VARCHAR( 255 ) default NULL;

I don't have a phpbb2_forums table so I am thinking it is just phpbb_forums correct?

Also I didn't see anything else on it so I assume the remeber statement is rhetorical?

So I assume again I can just run the querry:

Code: Select all

ALTER TABLE `phpbb_forums` ADD `forum_icon` VARCHAR( 255 ) default NULL;

on phpmyadmin and that will do the trick?

thx

yes, i think it will do the goal

Depend on the table prefix you've used for your phpBB forum, change accordingly

Hi,,

a nice MOD ycl6 ,,

but is it working on 2.0.5 ?

thanks,,

[morpheus2matrix]

yes, i think it will be ok

[ycl6]

I knew it works on 2.0.4 & 2.0.6 becoz I've test on these two version, but have not try it on 2.0.5.

I don't think there is too much difference between the three version in the code you need to look for.
